Honkamp Krueger acquires Des Moines CPA firm Short & Company

On October 1, 2018, Honkamp Krueger & Co., P.C. (HK), a Top 100 CPA and business consulting firm in the U.S., acquired greater Des Moines area firm, Short & Company, CPA, P.L.C.

Greg Burbach, Honkamp Krueger’s president and CEO, states, “As Honkamp Krueger continues to grow, it was natural to look toward our state capitol region for a good-fit CPA firm. We found that with the Short & Company partners and team, who have a similar approach to business with their work ethic, quality services and culture. Already having a Des Moines presence with our wealth management affiliate, HK Financial Service, and human capital division, Kabel Business Services, we are excited to add the CPA and business advisory service lines to the region.”
